GarageGames: $99 Game Engines (with Source!)
Deozaan:
You've been patiently waiting and the time has come. GarageGames is back! We've changed our name back to GarageGames and we are dropping the prices on all products to $99.00 to celebrate our new direction and return to our indie roots. It's been a storied ten years for the GarageGames name and we are looking forward to ushering in the next decade.
The return of GarageGames is much more than a $99 price point. It's a commitment to the community who grew with us over the years. It's a return to the values that brought people together to make great games without the burden of unbearable pricing or royalties. Our community is a diverse group of people who are willing and able to help each other grow as game developers and we can't wait to take that community to the next level.

I'm glad to see GarageGames alive again. They have quite an amazing 3D engine so the $99 price point with full source code and no royalties is really amazing! The 2D engine shouldn't be overlooked either.

Wow. Very interesting. And dirt cheap! I'm very tempted just to buy a license to play with~! :P
All the money I make from the gaming industry is from other people's games. Never done any game stuff for myself before.
Deozaan:
It should be noted that the $99 price point is only temporary, but how long the "sale" lasts and what the price will be afterward are still unknown.
@Everyone, the "limited time" language is sort of up to you. We want to see how the community reacts to such a low price. We would like it to stay around for a while since we think that the price ( or some number near it) is really beneficial for our community. We're in this together ;)-http://www.garagegames.com/community/blogs/view/20775/6#comment-171468

I'm thinking about it too :) If I didn't already have a hobby project, I probably would now... but I'll wait until I have time to play with it. But it's very interesting- especially looking at the games made with it. Thanks! :Thmbsup:

Thanks for posting this clarification. So now I *really* have to think about it.

Grrr... >:(
Just when I thought I could put this off for a bit... Hmmm... Looks like I need to s*** or get off the pot...
Well, if I can use C# (easily), I'll buy. Need to figure that one out...
Off to let my ADHD make me slightly less productive for the next 30 minutes while I fart around and contemplate whether I wasted 30 minutes or should have just fallen off my wallet 30 minutes ago and bought a license... I'm babbling now... Time to goof-off for a bit before getting back to work... :D
